There are not many people who can participate in the afternoon hunt, and the king of Cheng'an is also the most feared person in the city of Jingzhou, and Jingzhou is also the king of Cheng'an assigned by the king to manage, and the king of Cheng'an has been loyal to Kyoto since the beginning of the king, as long as there is a relatively bad war, the palace of Cheng'an will naturally bear the brunt. In this way, the kings of the past did not restrain King Cheng'an.

King Cheng'an invited the Qi and Shu families, and the others were only Jingzhou Mansion Yin. Jingzhou Mansion Yin is considered to be Qi Chen's protégé, and when he went to Beijing to take the examination, he encountered a small matter, but it could affect his life, and it was Qi Chen who reached out to help. Later, when the first king made meritorious contributions, he was sent to Jingzhou Mansion Yin and was not promoted, but he was loved by the people for his fame. Shu Rusheng knew that he wanted to participate in this hunt and came in a riding costume, and only Shu Yi and Xuan'er came to Shu Mansion, and the two of them did not participate this time, because King Cheng'an read that their wedding date was approaching, if it was because of some mistakes in this hunt, the wedding period would be put on hold, Cheng'an Wang Lingzicheng has always liked to join in the fun, how could he let this wedding period be put on hold again, so he ordered them to watch it.

Therefore, only Shu Rusheng, Qi Liansheng and Ling Zicheng participated in this hunt, and Fu Yin was not young, so he also brought his wife to be a watcher. Shu Rusheng was about to get on the horse, only to hear Ling Zicheng get up from his seat and say: "I know it's a lot to watch, but in order to give us the wind of the lord of Dunwan Chang, I invited another person, we are all familiar with each other, and he will also come to participate in Shu Yi and Xuan'er's wedding." I'll figure out the time, so we'll see. ”

After listening to his words, Shu Rusheng turned to look at Shu Yi who was sitting, and he didn't know which person it was, they were all familiar with each other. She waited a little longer, and then she saw the two of them, each riding on their colts, coming to their side. They were getting closer and closer to Shu Rusheng's side, and Shu Rusheng was also coming in their direction, and she could see at a glance who those two were. She involuntarily turned her head to look at Shu Yi, who looked at him and lowered her head. Shu Rusheng looked at Qi Liansheng beside him, showing an embarrassed look. Waiting for the two to dismount, Fu Yin and the people he brought first knelt down, and then Qi Xin, Shu Yi, Xuan'er and all the slaves knelt down and shouted, "I've seen the prince of Muling."

This person is Wang Yijun, the king of Muling, and he is followed by Wu Ying. Wang Yijun made a gesture, and they stood up, Wang Yijun approached Ling Zicheng and stretched out his hand to shake his hand in mid-air, and said, "You kid, not bad." The people on the road to Jingzhou City live and work in peace and contentment, which is really good, and they have not lost the royal face. ”

Ling Zicheng looked disdainful, let go of his hand, and if he pushed him, he said: "King Muling, how are you talking, Jingzhou was specially handed over to our Cheng'an Mansion by the first king, of course it is good, and our Jingzhou Mansion Yin also tried his best to treat our people in Jingzhou." ”

Jingzhou Mansion Yin nodded, blessed the salute, and expressed his modesty. When they were greeting, Shu Rusheng got on the horse with Qi Liansheng's strength, Qi Liansheng gave him the bow and arrow, and then he got on the horse himself, and the house slave he brought gave the bow and arrow to Qi Liansheng. Shu Rusheng and Qi Liansheng, who were riding on the same horse, didn't notice them, and only Qi Xin and Xuan'er saw that the two of them were ready to go to the hunting ground.

Ling Zicheng heard Shu Rusheng's voice, so he said, "Hey, you two, you two are a foul." ”

Shu Rusheng hadn't gone far, she turned her head to look at them and said loudly: "You just said it, wait for the people to arrive." We're not foul either, and I'll see when you're done greetings, it's getting dark. The bets I said in the morning are all here, let's see the outcome of the meeting. ”

After saying that, Shu Rusheng laughed. Qi Liansheng also laughed, spurred the colt under his feet, and ran towards the forest with Shu Rusheng. Ling Zicheng saw that they were gone, as if he had lost the game, and shouted at Wang Yijun: "What are you still stunned about, both of them have entered the hunting ground, I can't lose to her." ”

After saying that, the slave of the palace rode the horse, let him jump up, took the bow and arrow, and was about to go to the hunting ground, Wang Yijun went like him. The wife of Jingzhou Mansion Yin watched them go, and said, "Look, they are really young, and they are on horseback with a light jump." ”

Qi Xin was standing, sat down and said, "Can we, we can't compare to when we get old, just wait for them to come back, just eat some game." ”

The crowd laughed at this time, and they were idle and had nothing to do, so they talked about their daily routines.

In the hunting ground, Shu Rusheng rode a foal and was no longer as restrained as he was hunting with Shuchang County Lord in Kyoto before, but was well organized, easily holding a bow and arrow in his hand, and was preparing to shoot the rabbit that had been scurrying not far away. They didn't just go into the hunting ground in four people, they would be followed by a skilled soldier, who would keep them safe and pick up the prey they had shot wounded.

Shu Rusheng scurried around as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, but she didn't shoot a few prey, not that she didn't see it, but when she saw it, she put down the bow and arrow that had been drawn, quietly watched the prey eat the grass, and then looked at them stupidly. Behind her, no one in the distance was busy shooting her prey because of the game, just watching her quietly from behind. Because he rarely has such a time, now he is getting farther and farther away from her, and he can't figure out what her voice looks like, nor can he see through her joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

The sky was a little dark, and the soldier who followed behind Shu Rusheng rode up to her on horseback and said, "Lord Chang, the hour is almost up, let's go back." ”

After listening to his words, Shu Rusheng looked up at the sky, it was indeed a little dark. She led the horse and went out, and said, "Well, let's go." ”

After that, they went to Qi Xin's side. When all four of them returned to their original places, they saw that a bonfire had been lit. When they all got off the horse, Xuan'er stood up first, saw that they had gained a lot, and said, "Fang just said that everyone can't be hungry now." ”

Shu Rusheng knew that it was Wang Yijun standing beside her at this time, so she didn't turn her head, but only walked forward and sat down beside Qi Xin. After Qi Liansheng saw it, he turned to Ling Zicheng and said, "It seems that I won." I'll give Ya'er all the prey, and you'll lose. ”

Ling Zicheng was surprised to hear what Qi Liansheng said, and said with an impulsive look: "How can this be, you guys are in a group, what about me?" King Muling, you have to join forces with me, I can't let them bully. ”

After Wang Yijun heard what he said, he blurted out directly: "I also gave the prey in my account to Ya'er, so you lost." ”

Ling Zicheng couldn't cry or laugh when he said this, and stretched out his hand to point at the two of them, but they looked ridiculous. Although he couldn't cry or laugh on the outside, he missed it in his heart, they weren't like this before, but they grew older, and they were a lot more estranged. He sighed, and then turned to the person he brought and said, "Forget it, count me as losing." You keep doing all these prey, everyone tastes it, it's been a long time since it's been so lively. ”

Those house slaves walked down with those prey, and although Shu Rusheng didn't look at Wang Yijun, he could feel that he kept looking at him. Qi Xin patted Shu Rusheng's hand, Shu Rusheng looked up at him, and avoided the language flowing from his eyes. Qi Xin first stood up, and then stretched out his hand to Shu Rusheng, Shu Rusheng got up and took his hand, Qi Xin said: "Some tired from sitting, you go for a walk with me." ”

At this time, Qi Liansheng was already by his side, and he also wanted to follow but was stopped by Qi Xin's gesture. The two of them didn't take anyone outside, it was a suburb with a small river. Qi Xin walked forward along the river, and Shu Rusheng was still holding his hand. Qi Xin patted her hand and said, "Girl, I know you don't feel good in your heart. ”

Shu Rusheng has always given Qi Xin the appearance of being too playful, but Qi Xin also had times when she was young and frivolous, she understood the actions of Shu Rusheng and Wang Yijun when they met just now, and she had also heard Qi Liansheng talk about it, and she also knew that her heart was not as strong as he imagined. Shu Rusheng looked up at him, smiled and said, "Father, what did you say?" I'm happy, don't guess. ”

Qi Xin looked at her hard mouth, and said with a sigh of relief: "Girl, my father doesn't ask you if you have anything to do next, if you exchange your status." Father wants you to marry Shu Rusheng, the young lady of the Shu family, to the prince of Muling. When Sheng'er told me that you were going to marry him, your face was a smile from the heart, not now, when you face yourself, you will reveal your true face. ”

Shu Rusheng looked up at him, shook his head and said, "I know, my father and brother are all good for me." But I am no longer Shu Rusheng, and I will no longer have anything to do with the Muling Palace. Father, I said I'd come back with you when I'm done. ”

Qi Xin took her hand, reached out to wipe the tears shed for her, and said, "Father has lost too much, I don't want to be a person who has been worried about my whole life." ”

Shu Rusheng turned to the other side of the river at this time and said, "No, I won't miss him." It's Muling Wangfu that makes my aunt gone, and my eldest sister gone, I've already died once, Qi Anya is no longer the Qi Anya she used to be, now she only has Qi Mansion safe, nothing matters, father. Please, don't say anything in front of me, any news about the Muling Palace. ”

Shu Rusheng cried while speaking, which made Qi Xin feel a little distressed, but he scolded angrily: "Why is there still darkness in your heart, why don't you live in your own heart, why do you rely on these darkness to do what you think." If you don't have these dark psychology, you are now doing these things in the name of the chief county lord that your father is proud of, but why don't you live for yourself, as long as you live a happy life, those people want to seek your happiness, what means do you have, why do you step by step into their trap, so as to hurt yourself like this, your father's child, how can your father watch you suffer like this. ”

Shu Rusheng listened to his words, although with blame, but with love, she turned around and knelt at Qi Xin's feet, crying and said, "I'm sorry, father." I just want to do my part, and then think about myself, father, please give me some time, and I will take care of it. ”

Qi Xin wanted to reply to Shu Rusheng, who was crying, only to hear Qi Liansheng running from a distance and saying, "Uncle, the meals are ready, waiting for you to go back." ”

In fact, Qi Liansheng had been waiting in the distance for a long time, and he knew that it was not suitable to approach at this time, but he wanted to give Shu Rusheng time, so he stepped forward to interrupt. Qi Xin listened to Qi Liansheng's words, turned to look at him and nodded, and said, "Okay, don't let others wait for us." ”

After speaking, he gave Qi Liansheng a look, Qi Liansheng saw this, and stepped forward to help Shu Rusheng, and wiped Shu Rusheng's tears as he walked, and the three of them were speechless along the way.
